Miami Beach has some of the most exclusive communities in South Florida. This exclusivity, combined with the abundance of South Beach lifestyle, makes a private island living on Star Island and Indian Creek Island a desirable option for the rich and famous.
Located in the clear waters of Biscayne Bay, between Miami Beach and the center of Miami, is the exclusive Star Island Hotel. The artificial island created by Karl Fischer and completed by the Army Corps of Engineers in 1922, real estate in Star Island has become one of the most desirable lands in the country. The luxury homes of Star Island are located in the large city of Miami Beach and are located on one of several islands that are located in Biscayne Bay Nature Reserve. Star Island can be found east of the islands of Palma and Hibiscus and south of the Venetian islands.
The houses on Star Island are extremely exclusive, and on the island only 35. The vast majority of these estates are the properties of the embankment, from where a stunning view of the bay opens up. Star Island homesteads heavily include a docking station for many boats and yachts that can be seen sailing through Biscayne Bay. Adding exclusivity to Star Island is the privacy it provides to its tenants. Star Islands are accessible only through a single Bridge Road bridge that connects it to the mainland via MacArthur Cosway, with round-the-clock guards blocking access to the island. The oval island has only one main road connecting the mansions, which do not give public access to the embankment, which makes the property here the only way to truly appreciate all that it has to offer.
The protection and privacy of the island, combined with the extensive size of the property and an amazing view of the bay, have consistently attracted the richest celebrities and entrepreneurs to the shores of the precisely named Star Island. Those who own mansions on Star Island include artists such as Will Smith, Madonna, Gloria Estefan, Lenny Kravitz, Sylvester Stallone and Sean "P. Diddy "Combs; as well as athletes such as Shaquille O & Aile and Alex Rodriguez.
With multimillion-dollar property values, some even reach tens of millions of dollars, it is clear that Star Island is an enclave for wealthy people who want easy access to the excitement and magnificence of South Florida, all from the privacy of their own pointed island.
Indian Creek is a rich village sleeping on a private island in Biscayne Bay. Houses in the Indian Creek are located in one of the most exclusive areas of the country, with 32 spacious estates on just 38 plots of land. According to the 2000 census, Indian Creek ranks eighth in the country with the highest income in the country. Indian Creek luxury homes usually range in the tens of millions of dollars. Adding to the greatness of the island is the fact that every house in the Indian Creek is an embankment with a beautiful view of the sparkling Biscayne Bay.
Indian Creek is designed with only one perimeter island road. The island’s interior consists of the Indian Creek Country Club, a world-class private golf club. The 18-hole golf course is generally considered the best in South Florida, with several openings, overlooking Biscayne Bay.
Indian creek is one of the smallest municipalities of the country, and is also the most secure and protected country. The island has its own police force with approximately one officer for every three residents. Further protection is provided in the form of 24 hours a day, seven days a week, armed with a patrol on the island. It is one of the only naval police forces in the entire Biscayne Bay.
The luxury of the homes of an Indian creek, combined with the uniqueness of the Indian Creek Country Club, unparalleled looks and superb security make Indian Creek the perfect community to live in. The unique combination of features that the island offers is often a draw for the rich and famous. Famous tenants included Spanish singers Julio and Enrique Iglesias, supermodel Adriana Lima, head of Perry Ellis George Feldenkrais, former Miami head coach Dolphins Don Shula, billionaire developer Donnie Soffer, co-founder of Calvin Klein Barry Schwartz, and billionaire real estate mogul Peter Breton.
